JMT Yosemite forecast questions
What are the odds of catching a JMT Yosemite opening?
Right now our forecast puts the next 30 days at a moderate chance of catching at least one availability opening for JMT Yosemite, based on 8 weeks of our own scan history. It's a band, not a promise — read how we calculate it on the methodology page.
How is the JMT Yosemite forecast calculated?
We split our scan history into non-overlapping windows and measure how often at least one opening was actually detected, then shrink that rate toward a pooled prior so a short history can't overstate its confidence. No lottery data, no guessing — just what our scanner has seen. Full math on /forecasts.
Is this a guarantee that JMT Yosemite will open up?
No. It's a banded probability from historical scan data, not a prediction of a specific date and not a guarantee. Set a watch and we'll alert you the moment a real opening is detected.
